In an ideal world you would find me roaming the streets of Italy with my husband and our two dogs - a pastry in one hand and my camera in the other. I'm a travel-obsessed, dog-loving, 20-something and the owner and lead photographer at Tiger Lily Photography, a Minnesota & Arizona based wedding, boudoir & portrait photography company.

I'm Emily Stock!

hey friend,

MISSION

my

When my grandma passed away in early 2018, my family and I sifted through hundreds of photos of her. She had been suffering from dementia for nearly a decade, so photos were the only way we were able to relive and retell her story.

For every client I'm fortunate enough to serve, my overarching mission is to create an unforgettable experience while producing genuine, beautiful, and timeless images from each season of life. I want to help craft and share the story of you, a story that will be cherished for years and generations to come.

I value your memories as if they were my own and I truly want them to live on forever. Your story matters and it deserves to be shared.

Timeline

October 2013 Andrew gave me my first DSLR camera for my birthday and I immediately purchased a “nifty 50” (50mm f1.8) lens and started shooting any and everything I could.

November 2013I began offering sessions I called Photos for a Cause, which was a way for me to raise funds for charities I was passionate about and learn some great photography and business lessons along the way.

May 2010 I graduated high school and started my first semester at the University of St. Thomas.

December 2013I graduated from Bethel University with a degree in Communication Studies.

December 2014 I shot my first wedding and Andrew proposed!

January 2016 I created an LLC for my business and officially named the company Tiger Lily Photography for my grandma, Dori, who was suffering from dementia at the time. She passed away in January 2018.

May 2015Andrew & I got married in our hometown!

September 2017While balancing my full-time job and my photography business, I suffered a panic attack while I was out for a walk with, Stella. I made the decision to leave my marketing job and pursue photography full-time that evening.
